Tell the Truth - Public Meeting

We ask politicians to 'Tell the Truth' before the January 31st Queensland election.

GECKO and Save Our Spit Alliance are asking political party and independent candidates to 'Tell the Truth' regarding their election policies regarding The Spit, Wavebreak Island and the Broadwater.

Where: Southport Community Hall (Lawson St. next to the Southport RSL)

Date: Thursday 22nd January 2015

Time: 6.30pm - 8.30pm

We look forward to seeing you there - please tell your family and friends.

We have invited politicians to unambiguously, truthfully and transparently present their policies on the following issues if they are elected to the Queensland Parliament in the upcoming State election.

Your party's policy on the preservation of Queensland's public open spaces including parks, waterways, islands, foreshores and beaches. Your party's specific policy regarding the current Integrated Resort Development Project (IRDP) proposal by ASF (China) Consortium for a casino, high-rises, private apartments and marinas and cruise ship terminal developments on public open space on the Southport Broadwater, Spit and Wavebreak Island. Your party's policy on future development proposals (government or private) on the Spit, Broadwater, Wavebreak Island and other Gold Coast public beaches, parks and foreshores. Your party's policy regarding the long-term protection, preservation and maintenance of the Spit and Broadwater and their islands, beaches and foreshores.

Townsville Terminal falls well short of hype

Meanwhile, look at the ridiculous shortfalls in the Townsville Cruise Facility to see why the truth regarding ASF (China Property) Consortium's 'Broadwater' proposal seems to be in such short supply.

Perhaps Townsville was all about the associated real-estate deals and not really about cruise ships. Sound familiar?

Just add more hype, vested interests, lies and deception and you have a recipe for the Gold Coast.

Over 3000 people at the recent December 'Grand Theft Wavebreak' public rally showed their concern about the potential loss of their public open space in the Broadwater. We hope you will welcome the opportunity to hear the policies regarding the future of our public parks, beaches, islands and waterways directly from our potential political representatives at our 'Tell the Truth' meeting.

See you at the: TELL THE TRUTH Public Meeting – Southport Community Hall - 6.30pm Thurs 22nd January.
